We were amped when we saw this submission. This party was created by Holly of Paisley Petal Events for her daughter Madison. Madison’s favorite movie is “Barbie in a Mermaid Tale” which features Barbie as a surfer. Holly created a Beach Barbie Birthday Party and incorporated all of Madison’s favorite colors. She pulled out the big guns with those surfboards in the back, which were handmade by Holly and her husband. We love the barbie silhouette and the hibiscus flowers that are featured in the desserts and printables. Sweet treats included cupcakes, sugar cookies, rice krispie treats and fruit ice. Activities at the party included Barbie coloring pages, decorating flip flops, and making charm bracelets. This party is a barbie lover’s dream. Did you like Barbie when you were a kid?
